About Me: Wynns Coonawarra Estate is Coonawarra's pre-eminent wine producer and largest single vineyard holder with the best and longest established vineyard sites in the region.
Its wines are regarded as benchmarks for the district, lauded for their consistent quality and depth of flavour.
Its most famous feature is the terra rossa soil, a rich red topsoil which lies over soft porous limestone with a constant water table beneath it. As the vines have to struggle and stress in extending the roots through the thin layer of terra rossa and the limestone to the water table, growth of the vine is limited to producing low yielding, intensely flavoured grapes.
